Question 1

What do rear end 2018 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE models sell for?

Accepted Answer

Across 284 recorded sales of the 2018 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE with rear end damage, the median was $4,400, from $3,250 to $6,900. That is 7% above the $4,100 median for the model across every damage type, over the last 36 months. Estimates from past sales, not a valuation.

Question 2

Was $3,150 a good price for this 2018 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE?

Accepted Answer

2202 comparable 2018 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE listings sold at auction for a median of $4,100, spanning $3,150 to $6,300. At $3,150 this one went 23% below that median. Auction prices reflect as-is condition, so the gap usually comes down to damage severity, mileage and whether the car runs.

Question 3

How much below its undamaged value did this CHEVROLET TRAVERSE sell for?

Accepted Answer

The insurer put this 2018 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE's pre-damage retail value at $10,383. It sold for $3,150 — 70% below that. A gap this size is normal for auction vehicles: the buyer takes on the repair cost, the paperwork and the risk that damage is worse than the photos show.

Question 4

What does "ENGINE STARTS" mean on this listing?

Accepted Answer

ENGINE STARTS is the auction's own condition note for this 2018 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE. It is a short status flag applied by the auction, not the result of a mechanical inspection. Anything beyond that has to come from the photos and a physical inspection.

Question 5

How far is this CHEVROLET TRAVERSE from an export port?

Accepted Answer

The lot sat at COPART in LA - NEW ORLEANS. The nearest major vehicle export port is New Orleans, roughly 130 miles away. Moving a car that distance on an open carrier typically runs $200-$300, which is a real part of the landed cost and one reason identical cars fetch different bids depending on where they sit. Rates are indicative market figures rather than quotes, and rise with fuel prices and in winter.

Question 6

Is 159,557 miles high for a 2018 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE?

Accepted Answer

Comparable 2018 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE listings at auction averaged 111,076 miles across 2202 sales, so at 159,557 miles this one sits 44% above that. At salvage auctions mileage moves the price far less than damage does — a low-mileage car with structural damage will still sell under a higher-mileage clean one.
